The best fitness and wellness gifts under $100 – CNET

This story is part of Holiday Gift Guide 2019, your source for the season's best gifts and deals, hand-picked by the experts at CNET.

Taking care of your well-being can mean working out, getting quality sleep, managing your stress levels, or just making sure you drink enough water. If you have wellness-minded friends, they're probably passionate about all of the above -- and more than likely always on the lookout for items that will make their life healthier and happier. That's why a gift that shows that you care about their well-being is about as meaningful as you can get.

Whether your friends are working on their fitness or trying to hack their bedtime routine, there's a perfect present out there for them. Below, check out 13 of our favorite wellness-related gifts this year.

Not only is this white-noise sound machine designed with a real fan inside (so you don't have to worry about crackling or awkwardly looping tracks), it's portable, too, meaning your friends can get a good night's sleep wherever they go. With a corresponding app that allows the user to adjust between the 10 volume settings remotely, the Snooz should be able lull even the lightest sleeper to dreamland.

This beanie fits snugly on the head and is double-layered for warmth and coziness, but its breathable Merino fabric keeps air flowing in order to avoid a dreaded sweaty head. It's even lightweight enough to layer with a hood or another hat for especially frigid mornings.

Great for hot or cold beverages and compatible with five different types of caps, this vacuum-sealed bottle from Yeti is about as versatile as it gets -- making it a perfect candidate to replace your friend's single-use coffee cups and plastic water bottles.

Fuel on the go doesn't have to be bland and boring -- it can be a sumptuous nut butter bar, a chewy oat bar or a vegan ginger peach bar, all of which you can find in Mouth's bar gift box. Featuring six bars in total, this box should give your friends a much-needed respite from their regular bland trail mix.

This set of five resistance bands is extremely travel-friendly and offers a wide enough range of resistances to meet anyone's level. Plus, the included exercise manual and door anchor make it easy to set up so you can work out at home, in a hotel room or at the gym.

Gifting your friend a subscription to meditation app Headspace means potentially giving the gift ofbetter sleep, lower blood pressureand overall reduced levels of stress. A yearlong subscription comes in right at the $100 limit, but one month of Headspace only costs $12.99 if you want to give your friend a shorter trial period before committing to the meditation lifestyle.

CNET's overall pick for best essential oil diffuser on Amazon can run for 10 hours, emitting cool mist as quietly as a whisper. Not only can it imbue any room with the soothing scent of your favorite essential oil, its 15 lighting modes and sleek exterior design make it lovely to look at, too.

Whether your friends are filling up at the office water cooler or at the banks of a stream in the backcountry, they can rest easily knowing that they're drinking clean water from a LARQ bottle, which the company says is the only bottle that can purify water with UV light technology on the go.

YnM's weighted blanket made CNET's best-of list for its wide range of weight options (from 5 to 25 pounds), breathable design and reasonable price. If your friends are always complaining about their low-quality shut-eye and racing thoughts before bedtime, the comforting pressure of a weighted blanket could help them get a good night's sleep.

This itty-bitty hip pack is big enough to hold a set of keys and a phone, but light enough that it won't weigh down the wearer. And, if your friends get caught in the rain, their stuff will stay dry thanks to the pack's durable water repellent finish.

Unlike your average mat bag or sling, Aurorae's backpack is made to carry everything in one place, including a change of clothes, a water bottle, a laptop and, yes, a yoga mat itself. And its design is made with travel in mind, whether your friend walks, bikes or drives to the studio.

If Icebreaker's beanie wasn't enough to keep your jogging pals warm through the winter, gift them a pair of Smartwool's running socks that are as lightweight as they are toasty. Made specifically with runners in mind, these socks are flexible enough to move with the wearer's ankles and feet, but still plenty durable.

This alarm clock simulates the gradual, warm light of a sunrise, without necessarily waking the user up at the crack of dawn. It offers a wide variety of alarms sounds as well, from birdsong to wind chimes, to allow your friends to slowly greet the day without being jarred awake.

Cardio or dance, Group X Fitness has it all – The Observer

Whether youre into cardio or dance, Group X Fitness has the class for you. Monday through Friday in Recreation Center 287, instructors lead students through a set workout that caters to every students skill level.

Classes offered include yoga, barre (which incorporates ballet and pilates to help with balance), Zumba and many others.

Graduate student in law and justice, Emileo Guevara explained why he likes the full-body circuit class.

Its better than going by myself, Guevara said. Because I have someone directing me on what to do.

Full-body circuit challenges the body by incorporating dumbbells, medicine balls and other exercise equipment giving your entire body a workout. Shantyle Black, a CWU student and Group X Fitness instructor, explained what her favorite part about the classes is.

Meghan Rochelle

Theres so many different skill levels, Black said. And its really fun to create a workout that everyone can do.

This is Blacks first quarter teaching the class on her own, last year she shadowed a class for personal training. The Recreation Center asked Black and a few others if they would be willing to teach the class, and Black agreed.

CWU student Karyn Meraz participated in the Zumba class that Group X offers. She chose the class because its fun and entertaining and you still get to work out.

I like dancing, Meraz said. And Zumba is a great way to incorporate that.

Meraz likes the class because she gets to burn calories and the instructor keeps her engaged.

Senior and IT Administrative Management major David Lin is the instructor for the class, and like Black, this is his first quarter teaching the class on his own.

Lin teaches the students a set workout which includes simple, easy-to-follow cardio infused dance moves like side steps and plies.

Lin started the class with a warm up routine and as the class progressed the workouts became more intense. Afterwards, he began the cool down process.

When youre cooling down, Lin said. Its very important to stretch [the muscles] out, to loosen them up a little.

This prevents any injuries and allows the muscles to relax so they dont hurt as much the next day.

When asked if they would recommend these classes to others, the participants answered yes and absolutely.

Meraz said that she would recommend the Zumba class to anyone that wants to learn the movement. She said Lin is very encouraging, and you can go at your own pace. If you dont know the movement, thats okay because no one is going to make fun of you for it, according to Meraz.

Lin said Zumba incorporates a lot of diverse dancing and music styles. He likes that the diversity can bring students together.

Diversity itself is just curiosity, Lin said. I try to unite students with different kinds of culture and different kinds of music.

Black said that her favorite thing about the students that come through her class is the fact that each student is different, both in skill level and life. According to Black, what makes this fun is they can all come together and work out.

Whether its Zumba or full-body fitness, the students said that they really enjoy the way that the class is structured, and they like how encouraging the instructors are. Meraz and Guevara recommend these classes to others for those reasons.

Black also mentioned how much she loves seeing the progress that the students make.

Seeing everyone have fun with it is the best part about it, Black said.

Family finds fitness and much more at YMCA – GazetteNET

Published: 11/13/2019 8:17:10 AM

Healthy living is a core value in our family. When we relocated, from Boulder, Colorado, we considered a number of communities in New England before deciding to move to Northampton. We were attracted by the extensive network of bike paths, abundance of local food production, access to forests and trails, a culture of higher learning and a multitude of resources for raising a family.

Still, during our early years in Northampton, Lori and I struggled with the reality that raising two young children, Zoe and Adam, in the absence of local friendships or family, was challenging. In particular, finding ways to remain physically active something Lori and I had come to take for granted while living in the outdoor recreational mecca of Boulder was essential to our well-being and sanity.

Fortunately, Northampton is home to the Hampshire Regional YMCA. Once we learned that Y membership included access to free child care through the Child Watch program and its experienced, well-trained providers we quickly decided the cost of membership was a worthy addition to our frugal family budget.

It was not long before Lori and I came to appreciate that the Y focused more broadly on healthy living, including spirit, mind and body, and was not just a place to exercise. So, over the years, in addition to regular cardio workouts in the gym and laps in the pool, we have enjoyed yoga and meditation classes, family mindfulness retreats at the Ys summer camp facility, and blissful sits in the steam room during long New England winters. As a bonus, since Y memberships include reciprocal benefits with many YMCAs in the U.S., Lori and I have exercised for no additional cost at other Ys in Massachusetts as well as in Connecticut, New Hampshire, Florida and Illinois, when traveling for work or visiting family.

As Zoe and Adam, teen and tween respectively, have aged, they have increasingly benefited from the Ys focus on youth develop, including swim lessons, open gym, open swim, the youth lounge and gymnastics program. These activities have offered a positive, social setting to develop their growing bodies, build friendships, and be part of a larger community committed to wellness.

One of the greatest and unexpected benefits of the Y, for Lori and me, is the way the center acts as a hub for social connection. Every visit to the Y offers an opportunity for brief yet enriching connection with friends, kids of all ages, other parents, professional colleagues, and acquaintances, reminding us that we are part of a larger community committed to healthy living. And for many years, Lori has taught Pilates classes at the Y, offering her both a circle of colleagues and connection to many throughout the community.

Recently our family participated in the Ys 8th Annual 5k Run. The weather was glorious, mid-40s and sunshine, with colorful, fallen leaves underfoot as we paced our way along the bike path and looped around picturesque Look Park. Lori and Zoe helped set up for the event. Zoe, along with friends from the Y gymnastics team stationed themselves on the course to cheer runners and walkers. Lori, who has recently returned to running, logged her best 5k time in decades. Adam and I ran together, and he out sprinted me at the end to log a personal best time.

After the course cleared, we gathered inside to hear race results. More importantly, the race director shared words about the Y community and the importance of the event. I was astonished to learn that in the prior year, the Y had devoted over $270,000 toward scholarships and discounted memberships, in order to help make the Y accessible to even more children and families.

I left the event with even greater appreciation for all the Y has to offer. Initially we joined the Y as a place to workout, but weve chosen to stay for the many ways it helps us sustain a healthy lifestyle, including connection to the community we now call home.

New Wellness and Fitness Studios Opening in Dallas This Month – D Magazine

Shine Hot PilatesRachel Pierce and Whitney Stern of Shine Hot Pilates

The reformer-free, Tracy Anderson-inspired Pilates studio has been hosting pop-ups since this summer, giving Dallas a taste of its heated sculpting and rhythmic moves. Its a bit looser and allows you to just be a little wild for about an hour, says Whitney Stern, who co-founded Shine with her friend Rachel Pierce. The two former instructors spent time in Los Angeles, New York, and Las Vegas studying fitness trends to craft their Dallas dream studio, which opens in The Hill Shopping Center this weekend.

{Grand Opening (with giveaways and 30-minute classes): November 16}

Another Pilates studio opening this weekend combines reformers with TRX bands in Uptown. The name (which one of my co-workers believes to be a nod to the Grammy Award-winning trio Naughty by Nature) is well represented in the studios greenery and natural decor elements. Kombucha and nitro brew are always complimentary, and your first Pilates by Nature class is on the house.

We touched down on Class Studios expansion last week, but for a quick refresher: the new Preston Center space introduces three new concepts. Theres a sculpting option, a HIIT class with treadmills, and Lab, where local instructors will be able to experiment with class formats.

{Grand Opening: November 23}

I didnt know Dallas needed a luxury infrared sauna studio, mainly because I didnt know luxury infrared sauna studios existed. But they do, and thankfully, after making its way to Austin last summer, CYL Sauna Studio (which also has locations in Nashville, Memphis, and Boulder) just landed on Greenville Avenue. Essentially, youll sit in your own sweat pod (alone or in tandem with a friend) for 30 minutes of infrared heat, which offers all the benefits of sunbathing without the dangerous effects. Bring headphones!
